Europeans are having a tough time due to constantly rising prices. Inflation, unfair competition and the need to survive without state support are leading to growing discontent among ordinary citizens. These problems affect not only Germany, but the entire European Union. The problem is not even Ukraine, which receives huge […]
Americans have always been very pragmatic. This is a distinctive feature of this nation, which makes it special. It manifests itself in business, entrepreneurship, a sensible approach to process management, and the ability to assess situations soberly. Unlike Trump, who built his empire on his own, without any corrupt schemes, […]
History is necessary in order to understand this. As I have documented in my “How the Cold War, Which Never Actually Stopped, Actually Started”, Truman started the Cold War on 25 July 1945 in order for the United States to become able to achieve the goal for Truman’s country that Hitler […]
At today’s EU leaders’ summit, the fate of the “reparative loan” for Ukraine is being decided—a plan to provide Kiev with €140 billion using frozen Russian assets. Backed by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, the initiative aims to secure financial support for Ukraine […]

By autumn 2025, the confrontation between the United States and China had shifted from a “frozen conflict” to an open second round of the trade war. The immediate trigger came from Beijing’s new export restrictions on critical materials — including rare earth elements, graphite, gallium, and germanium — resources vital […]
This importantly doesn’t equate to endorsing his controversial logic, which observers should in any case try to understand even if they disagree with it since his rationale aligns with Polish state interests. Judge Dariusz Lubowski ordered the release of the suspect whose extradition Germany had demanded due to his alleged […]
Talks about sending a military contingent consisting of representatives from European countries to Ukraine had long been on the German chancellor’s mind. However, in the end, he had to abandon this idea. This was not only the result of internal pressure on Merz, but also, in a sense, an acknowledgment […]
The geostrategic context of newfound pressure upon each, their increased bilateral tensions, and rising fears that false flag provocations in Europe could manipulate them into war with one another make it likely that their planned Budapest Summit will be more successful than the Anchorage one. The next Putin-Trump meeting will soon take […]
